H. Lawrence in two decades. Jeffrey Meyers' masterly work, with its new discoveries and insights, traces Lawrence's pilgrimage from his working-class childhood through his years of hard-won recognition to his death in France - after the scandalous publication of Lady Chatterley's Lover - at the age of forty-four. It describes his tempestuous marriage to Frieda von Richthofen and his intense friendships with Ford Madox Ford, Edward Garnett, Katherine Mansfield, John Middleton Murry, Lady Ottoline Morrell, and Aldous Huxley. It illuminates Lawrence's complex method of intermingling autobiography and fiction, and shows us the perfect congruence of the defiant artist and the courageous man. Jeffrey Meyers reveals for the first time the true circumstances of Lawrence's mother's death; his physical sterility; the reasons for the suppression of The Rainbow; his homosexual relationship with the Cornish farmer William Henry Hocking; and Ford Madox Ford's role in Lawrence's misfortunes during the First World War. His fresh insights into Lawrence's life are matched by his acutely probing interpretations of the works. (Klappentext).
